I smile as I lift my phone up high
It was one of those nights that don't make me wish to die
There was singing and teary eyes
As the laughter echoes, and we're free of lies
And for the first time since I can remember
I slept with thoughts of getting better
For them with my side
I can do anything, I can try.
You loved me.
I didn't.
I love you.
You don't.
We keep on missing each other. Can we meet somewhere in the middle someday?
I want to write everything that doesn't make sense
About you, the moonlight, the fence
But even if I did manage to put them into words
It won't be different, still the same repetitive chords.
Tears racing down my cheeks
I'm trying to find the words but I can't speak
My hands tightly clutching your shirt
Your eyes full of confidence and mirth
Here's another girl running after you
Foolish enough to believe that your promises were true
You smirked and pried me away
Saying, I'm too boring to make you stay
With that, you turned your back
An offhand comment wishing me luck
My knees buckled as I accept defeat
This is karma, so swift and sweet.
You asked for love but I got nothing to spare
And you begged for at least a little care
I tried, believe me, I did
I wanted to be what you need
But we're destined to fall apart
I lost my mind, you misplaced your heart
Now, we say our broken goodbyes
Between the two of us, I was the first to cry.
I take off the hatred, take off the love
Until I am empty, breathless and numb
And I lay beside you, under the stars
We're kids again, ignorant of the wars
Yet your hand, I can no more hold
You used to radiate warmth, now it's cold
And I expect you to recount my mistakes, where I went wrong
But all I could hear is a familiar melody, you're humming our song
So I reach out and laces our fingers, this is not the end
We're just two kids with broken hearts, we could start again.
My pen glides through the paper as I bleed you out
The ink tells what I can't speak through my mouth
It seems I lost my voice since you left
Not does it matter, with me, you're always deaf
I beg for you to stay, I plead for just another minute
But you're hellbent on tearing my heart, blowing it to bits
Yet you say there's nobody crueler than I
When you didn't even think twice when you said goodbye.
I'd close my eyes and I'll still see you
Behind my eyelids, in the places only we knew
I want to run to you, but I am frozen
How you could not see that I am broken?
And I know, I know you still love me
But you long to set yourself free
And though I wish to be your answer
You'd always be the fire I doused with water
And our fingers might touch, but our hands will never fit
We're fated to be strangers, walking in different sides of street.
I feel the hatred in your eyes as you look at me
It was once love, now tell me, what do you see?
A monster with your bloodied heart in her hands
A cruel savage wreaking havoc in these lands
Oh I know, I know, an apology won't cut it
But please believe that I meant every bit
I told you, I told you, don't give me something I do not deserve
I'm only meant from afar, something to be observed
I am chaos, I destroy everything I touch
Now, the pieces shatter, as you resent me and watch.
